900 v 9-3

I have been out of the US for over 7 years. Am back and can't help it, want a Saab. I used to have a 900 and LOVED it. I want a Hatchback so have been searching for a cherry 1999-2002. Drove a 9-3 for the first time and it didn't seem nearly as sprite as the 900. Since I don't have a lot of time to continue testing, thought perhaps someone here could help me with a bit of comparison between the 2. Does the 9-3 handle that much differently than the 900? Any helpful hints on engine/turbo? How best to look for sludge signs, etc? Was only looking for manual but from what I can tell, automatic seems more dependable in that era 9-3...true or no?
PS...I'm a woman who knows nothing about car motors. I just know I swore after my 900 I would never drive anything else. Try as I may to look at cars today, can't help but want a Saab Hatchback and would really appreciate any pointers you may have to offer. Thanks so much.
